Brimming with iconic images that defined the early days of Art House Cinema, Bergman’s The Seventh Seal (Det Sjunde Inseglet) stars Max von Sydow as a disillusioned and exhausted knight who, after a decade of battling in the Crusades, encounters Death on a desolate beach and challenges him to a fateful game of chess. Much studied, imitated, and even parodied, Bergman’s stunning allegory of man’s search for meaning was one of the early benchmark foreign imports, pushing cinema’s boundaries and ushering in a new era of movie-going.

Directed by Ingmar Bergman. 1957. 96 minutes. Not Rated. Presented in Swedish with English subtitles.
